For a Second There, Liechtenstein Thought it Was Getting a Huge Windfall from an Auction House, But No, It was Roy.

Pop artist Roy Lichtenstein's painting "Ohhh . . . Alright . . ." sold at auction in New York at Christie's  for a record $42.6 million. The cartoon-style painting, featuring a close-up of a young woman holding a telephone, with her response in a speech bubble, went to an anonymous phone bidder.
 
Andy Warhol, the presumptuous little soup can painter, one of whose cans also sold for millions at the auction, but not as many millions as Lichtenstein's painting, had no comment.
 
The Principality of Liechtenstein also had no comment.
 
Some people have speculated that Liechtenstein was the anonymous phone bidder for the Lichtenstein, but Liechtenstein had no comment.
 
The anonymous phone bidder also had no comment.
 
The only one talking was the money.
 
And the art listened.
